#147 - 3 Cool Flowers You Could Skip Planting This Fall

Running out of space in your fall cool flower beds? Wondering if there are any cool-season hardy annuals you can wait to plant until very early spring instead of this autumn? Today, Lisa and Layne discuss three cool flowers that you may want to wait to plant until very early spring, even if they are winter hardy in your area. They cover the advantages of planting Strawflower (Xerochrysum bracteatum), Lisianthus (Eustoma grandiflorum), and Stock (Matthiola incana) in very early spring rather than fall. Listen to the podcast and learn which flowers you can hold off on planting until very early spring and why this may be a better option!The video version of Lisa and Layne's conversation will be posted to The Gardener’s Workshop’s YouTube channel, where all “Seed Talk” episodes are organized into a ⁠⁠⁠⁠playlist⁠⁠⁠⁠.
